Just had a spicy ~~arrabiato~~ arrabbiata fresh pasta dinner.

The word for sauce in Italian is feminine.... Didn't DuoLingo cover that one?

It doesn't cover the sauce at all. But the adjective is just "angry" and Italian adjectives don't have a gender. It's arrabbiata when pasta makes it feminine. Put it on something masculine and it should be arrabbiato. I think.

If you start typing it into google, "arrabbiata sauce" or "arrabbiata recipe" results appear. If you google "arrabiato", it just says it's the word for angry. And every kitchen I ever worked in spelled it with an "a".

Always putting it on pasta

It's probably the actual name of the sauce and not just a description. But no idea.

It is the name of the sauce, whose name comes from the word for angry (because it is a spicy sauce). But I guess that applying it to pasta (feminine word) makes it feminine as well.

Example: Pollo alla Arrabbiatto

Changes to masculine when describing a chicken sauce.

"I'll have the angry chicken please!"

I don't know if the pollo example is collect, but it makes sense. It was just a restaurant menu example, so they are easily wrong, too.

Yeah, I can only vouch for the American usage as being "arrabbiata" more often than not.

Oh yes, that's how it would be used in English.
